    When I first installed my freeBSD system I thought,
    that I should install all the ports as well. Now I
    realize, that it was a dumn idea. So I want to delete
    all of them.
    My question is: How can I delete all the pragrams that
    were aded by sysinstall (pkg_add). So that I won't
    damage the system.
    My second question is: How can I delete almost all the
    programs except some of them. What I would like to
    specify.

    My biggest problem is that if I say:
    $ pkg_delete -r program_name
    I can't see what the program actually deletes. And
    because I set the "-r" it deletes all the other
    programs as well, that are connected to the original
    program that I specified.
    How can I make it to write out the actual status, what
    he is doing?

    Thanks,
